Truth Serum
Install when you need Claude Code to report partial work honestly, cite file:line evidence, gate commits on explicit approval, and document mistakes systematically.

What problem does it solve?
Agents that sound confident while code is broken or unverified waste solo builders’ time and create risky commits.
Who is it for?
Solo builders who ship with high agent autonomy and need audit-friendly status updates before every merge.
Skip if: Casual chat where you do not want commit gates, mandatory citations, or stricter reporting overhead.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After installing truth-serum, Claude Code sessions bias toward verifiable claims, explicit commit consent, and documented mistakes instead of polished fiction.
- Status reports labeled accurately as complete, partial, or broken
- Claims tied to file:line evidence when describing code behavior
- Commits only after explicit approval; improved mistake documentation habits

Journey fit
Truth-first discipline lands on Ship review as the canonical gate before merges, but the same rules apply whenever the agent speaks about repo state. Evidence-based claims and commit approval align with pre-merge review and accountability, not greenfield ideation.
How it compares
Workflow discipline plugin marketplace, not a test runner or security scanner skill.
